Chapter 8: The Ancient Crystal Lamp

Chapter VIII

"My head hurts!"

Zhao Mu opened his eyes and sat up with his head in his hands.

It took a long time for the pain in my head to disappear.

In his slumber, he saw from a third person's perspective the memories of carving in the life of a crystal carver from the Grand Duchy's Castle in the Duchy of the Night, who was given to the Jonah family when the first Earl of Rainbow came to Rainbow Island to build the castle.

Throughout his life, crystal carvers carved different crystal products for the castle.

His last work was the crystal chandelier in this room.

But before it was finished, he had already died of illness, and the obsession before death was attached to the crystal lamp, and with the passage of time, the crystal lamp had a history of six hundred years, until half an hour ago, he activated the obsession of the crystal carver with the power of time.

Zhao Mu clicked on the personal information and saw that there was an additional side task for the personal task.

[Main quest 3: Humble Last Wish]

【Difficulty: LV2】

[Mission Description: The nameless crystal carver regrets not completing the final work until he dies]

[Quest Information: Complete the Final Piece]

[Deadline: None]

[Reward: Crystal Carving LV1 (White Skill)]

[Hint: First of all, you need to be able to carve]

Seeing the task deadline, Zhao Mu didn't want to click directly to receive it.

There is no task deadline, which means that there is no possibility of failure, if there is a possibility of failure, he has to think about it, this kind of side quest that rewards skills will deduct the skill proficiency of other skills once the task fails.

Even if you don't have a skill now, when you learn the skill, you will be directly deducted into a negative number.

Zhao Mu took down the crystal lamp from the wall, came to the desk by the window, and put it on the table to observe it carefully.

Crystal carvers have made hundreds of crystal objects, the largest of which is a one-meter-diameter crystal chandelier in the castle's banquet hall, which is placed in the guest room but larger than a fist.

The whole crystal lamp is spliced together by two semicircles to form a hollow crystal ball.

It is filled with lamp oil and has a small hole in it that runs through the wick.

In addition to being made of crystal, this is simply the most humble crystal lamp, if you have to say that this crystal lamp is hand-polished round enough, it should be the only value of the crystal lamp, and it is observed that here Zhao Mu carefully recalled the memory of the crystal carver.

Although he saw all the carving skills of the crystal carver, he did not write down many of them.

Fortunately, in the last part, the memory is undoubtedly much deeper than the previous one.

"Miniature carving!"

Zhao Mu opened his eyes and pointed the crystal lamp at the sun.

He saw that the crystal carver had made the hollow crystal ball early, and carried out the miniature carving in the hollow crystal ball for half a year, because the carving was too fine to be seen by the naked eye, and the crystal carver was only the last little bit to finish carving but died of a heart attack.

His task should be to complete the final part of the miniature carving.

But how is this possible, although he likes carving, but the miniature carving has not been touched at all, and he has no tools in his hands, although he has seen the design drawings from the memory of the crystal carver, but it is still too difficult to complete.

"I didn't say I had to do it myself!"

Zhao Mu put down the crystal lamp and muttered to himself.

When he walked to the door and opened it, two muscular maids outside immediately stopped him.

"Find me the best crystal carver on Rainbow Island."

Zhao Mu calmly ordered.

"Yes!"

One of the muscle maids bowed her head in surprise and turned away.

The nobleman's castle was hierarchical, and even though it seemed to her that the countess's fiancé would soon be a dead man, as long as he was not dead now, he would still be half of their master in the castle, and the countess only restricted his freedom and did not restrict his other rights.

Half an hour later, the Muscle Maid brought back a sweaty little old man.

The clothing materials are good, the nobles of the Night Kingdom like crystal products, and even ordinary people like to use crystal products, and the income of crystal carvers is still very good, but if they are so old, they can't do micro-carving.

"Can you still do miniature carving?"

Zhao Mu frowned.

"Yes, I just made a miniature carved crystal product not long ago."

The little old man hurriedly said.

"Come and see this."

Zhao Mu pointed to the oil lamp on the table and said.

"Okay."

The little old man walked into the guest room and took out the tools he carried with him, chose a high-powered magnifying glass, carefully observed the crystal lamp, and finally frowned, as if he had encountered an unsolvable problem.

Zhao Mu came to the side and picked up a pen and paper to draw the final design drawing.

The little old man still couldn't understand it after seeing it, but it was enough for him to fulfill the requirements of the noble nobleman, this crystal lamp was hundreds of years old at first glance, and there were no such things as magnifying glasses and microscopes at that time.

Now with these tools, the difficulty of miniature carving is much less.

Pour out the lamp oil and disassemble the crystal lamp, after cleaning, put on a high-magnification mirror in front of your eyes, and begin to carve carefully, until the last part is completed two hours later, and the sweat has wet the entire back.

It is hard to imagine how the predecessors completed such a complex miniature sculpture hundreds of years ago, when there was no inch mirror.

It is not visible to the naked eye at all, and all miniature sculptures can only rely on their feel.

Carefully putting down the crystal lamp, Zhao Mu stepped forward to pick it up and assemble it himself.

The moment the assembly was completed, a small part of his memory of the crystal carver became extremely clear, and there was an additional level LV1 ordinary white skill in his personal information skill panel.

It's not a supernatural skill, it's just a minimum life skill that can be mastered in reality.

But Zhao Mu was not disappointed at all, but felt extremely happy.

In the extra-dimensional evolution game, it is very difficult to master a skill, and he only needs to find an antiquity similar to this crystal lamp, if it is some antique weapons, can he learn some skills from it.

"You can go."

Zhao Mu drove the little old man out of the guest room, refilled the crystal lamp with oil and inserted the wick.

Set it on the wall and pick up a match on one side and light the wick.

As an oil lamp, the main purpose is lighting, but at this moment the lit oil lamp, the light is refracted and dispersed, if this was the case before, this crystal lamp has long been disposed of as a bad one, obviously this is just completed the final micro-sculpture of the change.

Zhao Mu closed the curtains, and the room suddenly darkened.

I saw that the crystal lamp refracted the light of the lamp, and the whole room had a dark night starry sky with a seven-colored rainbow under the refracted light, and the rainbow was dotted in the starry sky, and the flames continued to sway to form a gorgeous and colorful light and shadow.

"Sure enough."

Zhao Mu said with a smile.

This is not a hollow crystal ball oil lamp, but an ingenious antique work of art.

Even in the world of full-time hunters, it has a good value, and the value of this oil lamp outside the Principality of the Night is also amazing, and it can definitely be sold for a sky-high price if you speculate it, and the money in the reincarnation world is still very useful at least in the reincarnation world
